Hello Brian, I have managed to get my Matsonic MS7308E motherboard up and running. I followed the installation instructions on http://www.acl.lanl.gov/linuxbios/docs/HOWTO/SiS630 to the letter. I have attached my matsonic.config file that I used instead of the winfast config One potential problem I noticed is the last line of the example winfast config is incomplete. It should be: docipl northsouthbridge/sis/630/ipl.S If you use the incomplete line then the docipl will never rebuild. Could this be related to your problems? If you send me your docipl file I can compare it against my copy. Also send me linuxbios.strip and I will check this as well. FYI My system configuration is: Matsonic MS7308E motherboard 667MHz Celeron (Coppermine) 64MB SDRAM (not sure on speed suspect 100MHz) DiskOnChip MD-2008-D08 I am now rebuilding with linux-2.4.0 to see if I can get onto the latest kernel. Regards, Denis
